https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Stefan_Molyneux has a good take on the value of Molyneux's ability to reason about the world. He used to be fairly reasonable some years ago, but seems to have gone off the deep end lately and is known these days for his racist, sexist rants. One has to do a bit of digging to see how nuts he is, it's not instantly apparent because he wasn't always like that.

Gab, on the other hand, is simply a haven for nazis since its inception, run by a founder who got kicked out of Y Combinator explicitly for being a raging asshole man-child: https://techcrunch.com/2016/11/12/pro-trump-ceo-gets-booted-from-y-combinator/

Let's hope these sorts of people take a long time to get with the program. They're the kind of content that mainstream (read: reasonable) audiences run screaming from (and rightfully so).

Sort:  

How is Molyneux racist? Is he racist for pointing out history, statistics, IQ variants, the patterns we see all around us? Is it racist to say there is more black to black violence on average, it seems, based on numbers, based on statistics?
